"Hidden No More" Returns to Tampa Bay!
"Hidden No More - Empowering Women in STEM", a special IVLP initiative inspired by the work of African-American women scientists at NASA during the Space Age (the subject of the movie "Hidden Figures"), brought women leaders from Australia, Brazil, Ghana, Italy, Kazakhstan, Mauritius, Nepal and Samoa to Tampa Bay for interaction with our outstanding STEM educational resources.
This year's visits included the Jacobson Technical High School, Lakewood High School, the USF College of Marine Science Oceanography Camp Especially for Girls, the St. Pete Innovation District, St. Petersburg College Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art, and the SPC Innovation Hub, where they met with Ms. Nicole Stott, a NASA Space Shuttle astronaut, and the renowned artists Carol Mickett and Robert Stackhouse, who transform STEM into STEAM! On November 4, WP partnered with Women in Tech and Entrepreneurship at Thrive DTSP for a "community conversation" to meet and interact with these pioneering women change-makers during the panel discussion and at the reception. Special thanks to the Salvador Dali Museum for hosting these extraordinary women leaders!
